Pirate Books
Today we will look at 3 books that have related content about pirates.
The first is Not So Jolly Roger, a story about 3 young boys who have the ability to travel in time. Only this time, they run into the meanest, nastiest pirate around, Blackbeard. This story is a quick chapter book that is great for young readers and a must have for those boys in your class who do not like to read.
The second book is Pirate Diary: the Journal of Jake Carpenter, a story about a young boy from North Carolina who goes on board a ship with his uncle. There he is shown the ropes of a pirate ship. This book is very detailed including the graphic nature of the treatment of people on a pirate ship.
The third book is What If You Met A Pirate. This book is a information book laid out that is very appealing to kids. This book contains information about the weapons, the ships, sailing and other various pirate related information. I really enjoy this text because it included graphics, diagrams and illustrations while maintaining all the information. I believe students will enjoy this layout more than the typical layout of a textbook.
Thanks David. Can you be more specific about the content of the books and their connections to the articles you read?
